· CoI2

Cobalt iodide (CoI₂) is an intermetallic compound combining cobalt and iodine, belonging to the transition metal halide family. While not a mainstream structural material in conventional engineering, CoI₂ is of significant interest in materials research for layered crystal structures and two-dimensional material applications, particularly as a candidate for exfoliation into thin-film devices. Its notable low exfoliation energy makes it attractive for emerging technologies in electronics, photonics, and energy storage where atomically thin materials are engineered for enhanced properties.

Export Control

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
